“The revolution is a success. We have strung up those pigs and are free to do as we please. The glorious leader has decreed the trains will run on time and by the party they will run on time” - The newly appointed Minister of Transport Bukir Matvey on Liberation Day

The Trains of the Glorious Republic of the People is a tabletop RPG where the players play as a train crew in a fictional 1930s totalitarian state that has recently taken command  (Think of governments similar to Stalin's USSR or Mao’s Communist China). This document includes the rules to run this RPG, create your trains and characters, and a way to generate your adventures.

One player will take on the role of Minister of Transport - MoT for short (this is the role of Games Master for those familiar with tabletop RPGs). They are responsible for crafting the narrative, portraying non-player characters, and overseeing the game's mechanics. The remaining players are the trains' chiefs, each chief in charge of a carriage on the train. 

This game only requires d6s, pen, paper, and your loyalty to the party.
